Love Huh - Action And Anon Post

[leafheld]

Action 1: For Ellen

Suguha lay motionless, a cord length stuck in a outlet in the wall. She seemed quiet, with a device wrapped around her eyes. If Ellen found her in their shared room for the time being, she would be too quiet, like something had happened. In truth, Suguha was experiencing the VR that the city provided.

But all too soon, she sighed and opened her eyes. "It's not immersive enough."


Action 2: For Outside

Suguha had gone for a walk.

It seemed that even in the cold, Suguha didn't really find it all that bothersome, as she wandered from place to place, shop to shop.

She steered clear of Fayren, having no way to deal with anything, but she was looking for a sporting good shop. A shinai would be nice to swing around.

Otherwise, she went to the coffee shop where she met Takeru previously. But her mind was far away.

"Love huh..."

Anon Post

Just a single post. Neo's post got her thinking.

Suguha knew she had issues. And yet... she had to ask.

How do you deal with forbidden love?

Abstinence.

Even if it keeps gnawing at you? I can't stop thinking about my... issues.

Re: Text

I don't see how the persistence of a thing makes it any more legitimate.

Re: Text

[leafheld]

Perhaps not.

But I haven't been able to sleep lately thinking.

Action 2

[anamnestik]

"Love...?"

Also at the coffee shop was a chilly vampire. Though coffee was something he typically avoided (he was way too affected by caffeine,) he did need hot drinks in this season. So he was the weirdo who asked for hot tea, but threw the tea bag away almost immediately. All Eliot really wanted was hot water to drink.

"... I have heard the coffee here is really good. Do you love it?"

"Huh? Oh... no, I don't love it. I'm just thinking of... other things." admitted Suguha as she took a bracing sip of her coffee.

"It's nothing, really. I'm just bothered by Valentines Day."

[anamnestik]

"Haaah... Valentines Day." Eliot laughed weakly, shuddering at the thought.

"That's something I try to forget... Do you need to talk about it, though?" He tapped his cheek thoughtfully, "Topics like that eat you up inside if you don't talk about them, huh..?"

[leafheld]

Suguha's jaw tightened for a moment before she sighed deeply, tension flowing out of her for a moment as she centered herself.

"... I have a problem. The person I love... I can't have. And I'm reminded of it all the time. But now that I'm separated from him, possibly for a long time, it's eating me up inside. And then there was that Anon post on the forums about seeing other people, and it hurt to think about it."

I assume you mean a love that you cannot have right?

Sorry for making sure but love is a subject I am terrible at.

Re: anon text;

[leafheld]

that's right. I've got a problem, and that is I love someone who we both realize we can't be together.

The thing with love is it can change either suddenly or over time. The best thing usually is it give it that time.

Do other things away from that person might also be of benefit.

[leafheld]

Hmm... I guess that's true. I did however spend a lot of time away from him. It was complicated.

I guess there's nothing else to do right now, since he's not even here.

action 2

[moviemagic]

Krista figured she might as well bring the cast of the film she was working on coffee, she had memorized each and every member's coffee choices and figured she might as well be polite since they all pretty much needed it at this point.

They had been working hard after all.

As she left the store holding the coffee's in front of her, she had found herself accidentally bumping into the other, spilling a little bit of her own coffee.

"Oops, sorry...Guess the lip wasn't on enough." She moved to put them down for the moment before checking the other was okay.

Re: action 2

[leafheld]

"No no, that's okay, I wasn't looking." said Suguha, brushing her coat off. "Sorry about that too, it was careless of me to not be watching where I was going."

"Are your coffees okay?"

Re: action 2

[moviemagic]

"I wasn't paying attention either." She said checking a few things over before shaking her head.

"They are fine, I mean tiny spillage, but nothing serious. I mean could have always burned someone." Which would have been a bad thing is she had to be honest.

Re: action 2

[leafheld]

"Well it didn't happen, so we're all right," said Suguha with a tiny smile. "Don't worry about it."

She smiled a little. "I'm Suguha."

What kind of forbidden love are we talking about, exactly?

Re: text

[leafheld]

We're talking pretty forbidden. Like... between relatives.

Takeru was, of course, working again today, or at least just coming off his shift. Apron was being hung up as he waved his goodbyes to the staff that were still currently working as he was soon in front of the counter, only to come across the other he had seen before.

"Thinking about love? I mean I guess that makes sense considering it's nearly February."

Re: action;

[leafheld]

"Kinda yeah. People keep talking about it and it's driving me up the wall." said Suguha, looking up at Takeru with a uneasy smile.

"I've got complicated feelings."

Re: action;

[hopeschild]

"It's because it's nearly Valentines Day, so you'll probably be hearing a lot about the subject," he said as he looked to the side, there may or may not be some girls who were lingering around. He was aware they would come and watch him leave work sometimes, which wasn't too bad so long as they didn't try anything.

"though what do you mean by complicated?" He added slightly confused as he looked back.

Re: action;

[leafheld]

"That probably makes a lot of sense," said Suguha with a sigh. "I never really thought about Valentines since all I got was obligation chocolate, and chocolate from Recon."

"Ergh..." said Suguha, dipping her head. "I feel... FEELINGS for my brother, who is adopted and yet he's my brother. And we both know it. I'm such a trainwreck."

It depends on why it's forbidden and the consequences.

Re: Text

[leafheld]

Well it's involving family members.

[monkeyscream]

Does the other person feel the same way?

How is it different from the love one usually feels for a family member?
